French-born Eli Azran and L.A. native David Rimokh launched their understated men’s and women’s ready-to-wear label, RtA, in 2013. The Los Angeles-based brand, which stands for Road to Awe, marries a rebellious aesthetic with laid-back silhouettes to create a collection of luxe staples including leather jackets, distressed jeans, and logo T-shirts. The designers partner with local craftsmen who focus on fit, treatment, and intricate details, all hallmarks that elevate the brand’s mantra: Clothing should be a form of expression.
